We’ve built up our expertise over a decade in business. Along the way we’ve learned a lot and we’re proud to share our story. Take a look at over 10 years of success and inspiration…
Created as an internal tool for the web design agency Simon Best, Richard Best and Richard Fernandez we’re running. They quickly realised, that the product was something they could offer to other small businesses, to help them build an online presence.
BaseKit brought the founders success as winners at Seedcamp which enabled them to set up the company’s first office in Chepstow; in which the idea was originally born, taking on the first team members – several of whom are still with the company today!
Our first partnership was signed in 2010, allowing us to seize the opportunity to help small businesses via partners. Fast forward to over 10 years and we now have over 120 incredible partners, spanning 5 continents, and growing.
Leaving Chepstow behind for the buzzing tech hub of Bristol, we made the move across the Severn Bridge to a central office in The Pithay, giving us more space and boosting recruitment opportunities.
With the product in its 7th version, it was the first time you could build responsive websites! We exhibited for the first time, at globally recognised cloud conference, WHD (now CloudFest) and we’ve been going back ever since.
We signed a partnership with world-leading telco Telefónica, marking an important moment in our move into the world of telecommunications. The launch of BaseKit Sitebuilder reduced their churn rate by 42%.
Continued growth, meant saying hello to our current office in the modern One Castlepark building. In the same year, co-founder Simon took the exciting step of becoming CEO, 7 years after the company started.
Marking the first version of the editor to be completely accessible on all devices! Ensuring our moves are always mobile-first, we developed the latest version of BaseKit to not only produce beautiful responsive websites, but fully functional on mobile devices too!
In order to gain new opportunities within different markets and territories, we created and launched a brand new app called Go Sitebuilder. The new application serves as a much faster route to market for companies unable to provide traditional hosting services.
To coincide with our 10th anniversary, we launched our most user-friendly product ever, saying goodbye to drag and drop and hello to beautiful pre-built sections. Learn more about BaseKit 10 →
After a very successful launch of BaseKit 10, it was time to get all of our partners and their customers on the latest version. Giving all of our partners the chance to engage existing customers and reach out to new ones with the latest product offering.
With a global pandemic that will be remembered for many years to come, the BaseKit team jumped into remote working and adapted well. It has also forced us to look at new ways of helping small businesses thrive online… more to be revealed soon!
